Michael Vick on indefinite suspension without pay.

Now that he's pled guilty to several felony charges, Michael Vick has been indefinitely suspended without pay from the NFL. Despite the plea-bargain, I hope the judge throws the book at him.

If Pete Rose could be banned for life from baseball for gambling, then it would only be justice to see Michael Vick banned for life from football. I hope that this suspension is never lifted.

Teacher Arrested

This is apparently being passed around in e-mail. A friend of mine on BlogShares passed it on to me.

NEW YORK: A public school teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule and a calculator.

At a morning press conference, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said he believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-gebra movement. He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction.

"Al-gebra is a problem for us", Gonzales said. "They desire solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a search of absolute value. They use secret code names like 'x ' and 'y' and refer to themselves as 'unknowns', but we have determined they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with co-ordinates in every country. As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say: 'There are three sides to every triangle'."

When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said, "If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, He would have given us more fingers and toes."

I think it went well until the end.
